I am boat shopping and have run across a few Magnum 197's. Appearence wise they are very sharp boats but have never seen one in person and in the past have rarely seen one for sale. I have heard rumors that the transom strength was questionable and were not strong enough for the OB's that were equipped on the boats. I know Xpress carrys boats in the 19-21+ foot range with 200-225 hp outboards and from what I have heard they seem to be purty stable, but I'm not as big of fan of their deck layout as I am of the Tritons. I have noticed too that Triton hasn't carried the Magnum line for some time. So fill me in, are the rumors true? If I go the Triton route, the 197 with a 200 or 150 would suite me ideal. Just don't want to buy into a potential or probable disaster. Thanks fellas
